“As a tradeoff for pixel-level control and the familiarity of their favorite toolkit in Figma, designers have gone without basic slide functionalities like speaker notes and slide transitions. Figma Slides not only addresses those core features, but amplifies design functionality, making it easier for both designers and non-designers to co-create in the same space.”
A promising new app providing the presentation interface for Figma. Design your deck templates in Figma, instantly sync the template to deckd, and start building your presentations. Deckd lets you edit all text elements, present directly or share via link, and decide who can see what with access control.
Cool way to present work on the Figma canvas without entering the presentation mode.
wanna share one rad Friday @figma tip hehe

“We will leverage Figma’s native prototyping capabilities to demonstrate how to collaboratively design slide decks, as well as utilize FigJam’s whiteboards to present ideas while others follow along and give feedback. You can use these techniques to give interactive presentations, engage your audience (or students), and communicate your content clearly and compellingly.”

Madeleine Lee, Product Designer at Figma, took a stab at breaking down some of Gen Z’s unique differentiators into design principles we can carry into our own work at the recent Friends of Figma SF meetup. Even if you’re not interested in this topic, her slides are gorgeous and worth a look.
You can now use Spotlight while viewing prototypes, which is a great way to present without sharing a screen. There are also some performance improvements to the initial load time of prototypes.
Patrick Morgan on setting guardrails to give structure to your presentations made in Figma. (I always use Figma for my slides. One time I had to use Google Slides, so I designed my slides in Figma and then copy-pasted them to the presentation.)
Once you craft a presentation in @figma, traditional slide tools just feel... insufficient.

But to unlock that power, I needed to set guardrails to give structure to the blank canvas.

With support for components, hyperlinks, PDF export, presentation mode, and shared community files, Figma became a fantastic tool for designing slides and creating presentations. This article provides an overview of the modern workflow.

With the scrollTo release last week, we can make some slick multi-axis transitions.
